  • Wednesday, January 15, 2025
The East Tennessee Symphony Orchestra will host its seventh annual Sweet & Salty Valentine’s Concert Thursday, Feb. 13 at 7 p.m. at Founders Hall at The Commons, 4950 Swinyar Dr. in Collegedale. 

By tradition, the all-volunteer symphony orchestra will open its two-part Valentine’s Day themed concert with its “sweet” portion, featuring romantic classical favorites, and end with an assortment of “salty” big band selections. This family-friendly event is free and open to the public with first-come, first-served seating available and complimentary desserts and beverages by Honey & Hive Catering. 

The ETSO has performed alongside a number of prolific bands and musical acts, to include the Firework Finale during the 2023 Hamilton County Fair, its Christmas Concert with the Annie Moses Band for two years in a row, a performance with the Grammy award-winning Ricky Skaggs, and many more events with local and regional musicians.
  
A schedule of future concerts will be available on the ETSO’s website (www.etsomusic.org).
